I have this in /etc/hosts:
::1 localhost.local localhost
127.0.0.1 localhost.local localhost
plus a similar 2 lines for "bull.local" (the system's idea of its own name).
Make sure you also have /etc/resolv.conf set up with a valid DNS server,
and also containing this:
lookup file bind
so that /etc/hosts will (usually) be used before trying a DNS lookup.
